Right now it only tracks the actual string "fuck", if you check out the code on gh, <a href="https://github.com/mgingras/fBomb" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mgingras/fBomb</a> , by changing line 67 of coffeeApp.coffee, "stream = Twitter.stream 'statuses/filter', {track:'fuck'}" , you could track anything you wanted.
I was surprised there aren't a lot more F bombs being dropped.<p>Also, here is a nice nugget of wisdom from Nigeria:
"Fuck, don't give a fuck, don't get fucked over. 3 rules of life."
Surprised to see no f-bombs being dropped in Australia, it's a little quiet here, a little too quiet. Interesingly, seems a lot of people in the UK love to drop the f-bomb themselves, this is a little gem I discovered:<p>"I'm not an asshole I just don't give a fuck a lot"<p>Neat idea, I made something similar that generated fortune cookie messages based on Tweets, it wasn't as nice as your idea and execution, nice one.
I think it is a little bit odd to create a page that shows every fuck-word it can find in the world, call it "fbomb", having an About page whereby one only talks about the "F word" and "F-Bombs" while trying very hard not to type the word fuck.<p>Seems a kinda hypocrite to me. "Look someone said fuck in <country> haha, but I don't use that word, nono, not the F-word." I really dislike the term f-word. Say fuck if you want, say nothing if you don't want.<p>But, yes, funny idea.
Cool, seems like it's based on this demo:

Perhaps doomed to the same plight as most of these kinds of visualizations (wherein it becomes more of a population density chart than something with which one can cull any sort of actually useful information)?
I mean this is neat but why not try histogramming the results over a really long period of time? A fuck-field if you will. That will contain much more information.
